OBS Footer Code for OneBookShelf Publishers

The OBS Footer Code: Your Way to Increasing Sales on OneBookShelf Sites

Think of any major ecommerce website you frequent (including this one.) You will notice they are constantly pitching additional products to you based on similarities to the ones you are looking at on their site. Even on any of the various OneBookShelf websites (RPGNow, DriveThru, etc.), you will see products appearing along the sides, and sometimes even the top or bottom of the page you are on. This is all because doing so increases sales.

Internet marketing specialists have long since established that many customers are likely to make additional purchases if they are exposed to them while visiting a webpage with the intention of already buying things. So why isn't your OneBookShelf storefront doing this, as well?

Customize Your own OBS Footer Code to Increase Product Exposure

You'll probably notice that most publishers selling through OneBookShelf do not have customized footers under their primary product descriptions. Misfit Studios, on the other hand, has such a footer displayed for all of its products (you can see several below.) These footers alone account for dozens more sales each month -- all without any additional work once the footer is created, aside from keeping it up to date with new product entries.

The OBS Footer Code provided by this product is entirely customizable to include as many products, product categories, or footers as you like! The instructions are incredibly detailed, including colour coding and screen shots to make things easier for you.

Can you afford to miss out on such simple, low hanging sales simply because you haven't made use of all the tools available to you on this ecommerce website?

IMPORTANT NOTE:Since this product was introduced, OBS has removed the ability to use your affiliate code within your product footers. As such, the instructions provided for doing so within this product are no longer applicable.

Finding better ways to cross-promote your products can be difficult. OBS footers offer a great opportunity for cross-promotion, as long as you can either take the time to build that footer or know how to do it using HTML. Misfit Studios makes that proc [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
